U+9799 "鞙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

鞙

U+9799 "鞙" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (Hanzi) used primarily in classical and historical texts, where it denotes a leather strap or thong, often part of a horse's harness or a binding for a vessel, and it carries the pronunciation "xuān" or "juān" in Mandarin based on context. This ideograph is composed of the radical "革" (meaning leather or hide) on the left, combined with the phonetic component "肙" on the right, reflecting its construction as a phono-semantic compound. While not common in modern everyday Chinese, it appears in ancient literature and specialized discussions of chariotry, weaponry, or ceremonial objects, and it is encoded in the Unicode standard to ensure preservation and digital representation of such traditional characters.
